My Sony T1 compct digital camera has given me nothing be grief, with poor indor quality shots and blurry pictures.

I'm looking at a replacement compact camera. And wondering if any other members use one besides there D70.

I've read some reviews on Canon Powershot SD400-500. They seem pretty good. But would like other members comments


Cheers

Catcha,
O/T your order will be shipped out tomorrow from Sydney. The D70s body arrived this afternoon.

I have an Olympus P&S (C-310) but i would recommend one of the Canons you mentioned.

Oh boy! shipping to NT is a nightmare, 5-7 days by road transport via AP registered and insured mail, it's turtle

Thats ok, I'm so excited I can wait for 7 days, maybe i might be lucky and get it on Saturday cause i'm going on a sunset cruise.

You don't own any compact camera or recommend any do you birddog ?

No, I don't have any P&S in my inventory but do supplying them.
Name it and I'll have for you.

Damn your like a Genie in a bottle...Only problem is I need cash to pay for it I see when I whack that stupid Sony on Ebay and recover whatever cost I can.

Hi Catcha, I ma looking at getting a P&S too, getting one for the wife.

I am looking at the Fuji F10 or teh Ricoh RX8.

Hey Catcha

I bought my wife a nikon coolpix 5700, 5mp and she is wrapped! It takes nice sharp pics, easy to use, heaps of features and relatively cheap.

Ben,

In the PHD field, I'd be looking at the 4-7MP Nikons and Canons.

Both make excellent cameras with great optics in these ranges, and it's simply a matter of weighing up the physical size vs MP vs zoom range offered and coming to a decisive moment.

The Canon has some great reviews. The nikon well can't comment. I after one that does great indoor shots in low lighting. This where the Sony has failed me many times trying to capture shots at dinners, and nightclubs, social events where you would leave your bulky D70 at home.

I think I might be inclined towards the Canon SD500.

Have a look at the Fuji F10. It is getting great reviews for the low light images. Low noise high iso images.

Just a quick glance at Dpreview on it. It doens't have viewfinder, just like the sony, It's really hard in the dark when trying to P&S. This was a hassle with the sony trying to see what your trying to shoot in low light conditons, And in bright light you always trying to shield the sun so you can see LCD screen

I'll chime in: Panasonic LZ-1 or LZ-2 (4 or 5 MP respectively). 6x optical (from 37mm equiv), the largest selling camera in Japan released this year due to its attractive pricetag and Mega OIS (Optical Image Stabiliser). Takes regular AA batteries and SD cards.
